This is a goldmine! I've been scouring google docs for like two hours and completely dumbfounded by alll the scattered information I needed to somehow connect. Thank you so much :-)

As always, incredible video Julius. You always go above and beyond.

Thank you, Julius! The pieces of information you share are gold!

THANK YOU, for giving your video a proper title. It's annoying when POV's mistitle their videos just got clicks. Unfortunately, i dont use GTM, but I'm so glad to see your video didn't waste my time and I'm happy to give you a thumbs up for it! Hope you make a video on this topic for those that don't use GTM. #ThankYou

Brilliant guidance as usual Julius, thank you!

Thanks so much for the Video Julius! You're videos are such a great help for me in my new job.

This is the most detailed and understandable video I've ever watched. thanks.

Man you provide true value to KZread. Thank you so much.

Everyone read this out loud: "YOU ARE THE GOAT" You should have a donation link. Thank you for the help!

Yet another fantastic video, thank you! FWIW, yesterday I battled furiously because Google Ads did not have the option for GTM when I created a new Conversion, it only had html code to paste myself or to email, so I couldn't get the GTM ID. When remaking the Conversion, I noticed a line of text that said something like "Google Analytics is currently watching for data, click here to switch to Google Ads watching data" and when I switched it to "google ads" it finally gave me the GTM option and ID to use for the Conversion.

no words... amazing... THANK YOU!

Amazing video!!! Thanks for that!!! You've got one more subscriber!!!

Thank you for your time and effort.

This was awesome! Thank you for teaching me this!

Hi Julius - now that you have set your mind on GAds it would be nice (and market is asking for) a video that shows what are the benefits for GADS when used in combo with GA4. What GA4 can give to GADS that Universal was not able to give? Curious of your thoughts =)

@Webeminence

Жыл бұрын

Good question - I've wondered this too but not found any clear answer. I'm not sure there are many benefits right now over UA. I think GA4 just works differently than UA. GA4 uses event tracking while UA was based on page views. It seems like it was a necessary technology change and may have something to do with cookies, privacy, etc. The GA4 web tracking feels worse to me in many ways than UA but I'm hoping it improves over time.

for me, we have the website as the marketing tools (landing page) and as the web app. and we also have Android & iOS apps. as far as I know, using GA4 will make it possible to track data both from web and mobile apps. the data is recorded as the events in GA4, and then that data can be used in GADS. UA can't support mobile apps because it is web session based.

Hey Julius, Been watching your videos for a while and they are super helpful. I have a question I have been tracking purchases and passing subtotal into the value parameter, and I recently noticed that E-commerce Revenue prebuilt dimension is supposed to track value revenue and include tax and shipping. I am passing in all three but Ecommerce Revenue is only displaying subtotal data I was wondering if you knew why this is happening? Should I be passing in purchase total (including tax & shipping) into value but then why are shipping and tax even an option at that point?

Thank you for the video! Would be really grateful if you could show how to send dynamic values(conversion values) from server side container to google ads. Thanks!

Hi Julius, Thank you very much for creating this great video. I've created conversion tracking and it's working very efficiently. The only thing just bored me is that I have to trigger the conversion tracking. Because it will turn to inactive status if it does not receive any data for 7 days. Did you have any ideas on how to prevent the conversion change to inactive?

Hi, first congratulations for your content. My question is if there is a way to capture other parameters in the app such as "onclick" or we can only search for "ID" and "class" with google tag manager (GTM). if you can, would you like to mention a link, video or example to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for this video Julius, helpful as always. As the manually created conversion gives GA more data to work with, I'd prefer this option over importing the conversion from GA4. However, my GA and GA4 are linked and I need to track the same conversion in GA4 as well, for organic conversions. Will this cause any problems (GA4 conversions counted double for example)?

Hey Julius, in your GTM course for beginners do you show how to install the code (for the data layer), which is needed to send for example value and product_id to GAds, manually or via plugin? Thank you.

Websites are coded in different ways thus the code for various websites would be different. Thus there is no course that teaches you completely how to create the data layer code yourself (if you are not a developer). My course for beginners does not teach how to code.

Thanks for the great video. I looked at some successful shops with the GT Assistants Legacy extension and the use of both: the manual input code (gtag) and conversion tracking of Google Ads via GTM. Is there any specific reason for doing that? Wouldn't the same conversion be tracked twice?

Hey Julius, Thanks for your enthusiasm and details oriented videos-much appreciated! Despite following recommendations, in the Conversions section of my Google ads Acc I still see 'Inactive' in the 'Status' of each conversion action I selected. Could you please help me resolving the issue? BTW, I tested TagManager and it seams connected and working with my online store.

Can you add item_name in the conversion? Ie how can you see what items were purchased the most if youre just sending price (value)?

For the conversion in GTM do we always need a custom event firing trigger or can we use a page view trigger? I mean in the case for a lead signup form that leads to a thank you page, I'd setup the conversion trigger when a page view of the thank you page happens

This part of the setup does not change in CM v2. Just make sure the CM settings are loaded before your conversion tags and conversion linker. As for importing ga4 conversions to google ads, you can do that too. But then mark ga4 conversions as secondary conversions in google ada. That way, only conversions from google ads tag will be used for bidding and will be used as primary conversions.

Hey Julius, I need help with the conversion numbers of Google Ads and GA4. If I compare the conversion value and conversion numbers, GA4's conversions are almost twice that of Google Ads. I am talking about the purchase conversion Tag here. I have a Shopify Store, and a few months ago, I integrated the GA4 property with Shopify and got the Shopify-integrated Ecommerce Events. I checked almost everything, and the attribution model is the same for both Tags, which are Data-driven. Timezone is the same. Also, auto-tagging is enabled. Can you please help me solve this issue? Please find the example. This is data for July 6. Google Ads Tag: Conversion Action - Purchase Action Optimization - Primary Conversion Source - Website All conv. - 20.78 All Conv. value - 11784.2 Status - Active GA4 Tag: Conversion Action - GA4 (Web) purchase Action Optimization - Secondary Conversion Source - Website (Google Analytics (GA4)) All conv. - 47.64 All Conv. value - 14196.01 Status - Active I appreciate any help you can provide.
